Concept Search - What can I type?

For a concept search, you can enter phrases, sentences, or full paragraphs in English. For example, copy and paste the abstract of a patent application or paragraphs from an article.

Concept search eliminates the need for complex Boolean syntax to inform retrieval. Our Semantic Gist engine uses advanced cognitive semantic analysis to extract the meaning of data. This reduces the chances of missing valuable information, that may result from traditional keyword searching.

The above display is used for selecting/purchasing current or future products, as when a web user selects links or jpeg frames. The request then goes to the server in order to download the requested item. In the case of home shopping, it would then take the user to more detailed product information. In the case of a stream, it could configure the hardware to select and/or decode the stream, or provide further purchasing requests. Most selected items could be charged a nominal fee of $0.001 with an automatic acceptance limit of $0.01.
Those items that exceeded the automatic acceptance limit would be prompted for additional purchase and acceptance. With the basic minimum subscription to the service of $30 - $40, this would enable the user to select and view 1000+ streams daily.
The display device acts like a PC when the user is web browsing, using one of the many browser providers. The server consists of many devices that are typically found in cable TV head ends, i.e. analog and digital modulators.
The process:
The user presses the request for info button on the remote
The device asks the user for the area of interest, and the user selects (shopping programming, etc.).
The device asks the server for information and displays the request to the user
The user then selects the jpeg thumbnail, the device requests the server, the server configures the streamer or the hardware to display the selected product
